The Troster.com GymInfo National Rankings for the Men shift this week to the Four Score Average.  To get the Four Score Average, you take the five highest scores, of which no more than two are home meets.  Then, you drop the high and average the rest.

Even with the change, OU still leads the National Rankings by a significant margin.  There are some changes in the individual rankings.  Steven Legendre of OU still leads the AA, and holds the lead on FX and VT.  Teammate Jake Dalton holds the lead on PB.  Illinois' Daniel Ribeiro is the leader on PH, while Scott Rosenthal of PSU takes over the top spot on Rings.  Stanford's Alex Buscaglia swings to the top of the HB rankings.     

Rank Team Four Score Ave
1 Oklahoma 359.175
2 Stanford 355.013
3 Illinois 353.350
4 California 353.112
5 Penn State 352.425
